Also Thirteen Weeks Pregnant
I'm thirteen weeks pregnant too and having the same pains. I don't know what they are. It couldn't be a tubal pregnancy because an ultrasound would pick that up and your doctor would tell you. Did the pains just start this week? Mine did. If they don't go away or they become more severe i'm going to call the doctor. If they go away then it was probably nothing. Of course I don't know any more about this than you and i've never been pregnant before. Anyway I guess it would it hurt a lot worse if it was serious. What do you think?

Hello

when I was 6 weeks pregnant (4 years ago Smile ), i, too had pains on my left side... .. Ultrasound showed that I had a few nabothean, or water, cysts on my l. Ovary, which was causing the pain. I didn't believe it, because the pain was actually moving up my left side, but when the cysts 'popped', it was a massive sharp pain, and then it was gone.

I hope by now you've reported it to your doc or ob/gyn, and good luck.

Just a note - my ra improved signficantly while I was pregnant.... Today, however it's a different story...

Hi,

during your pregnancy were you tested for antibodies? My daughter has ra and has just found out she is pregnant and because she has ra the dr wants to do some blood tests to see if she has antibodies, have you heard of these and were you tested?
Many thanks,
belinda
